Governance Explanations

Part VI, Line 11B

Prior to submission of this 990 for Greater Things for 2023, the completed documents were all emailed to board members, and they were given a chance to review and ask questions. After that process was completed, the board members were asked for their approval for the 990 to be submitted. Only then was the document compiled, signed and submitted.

Part VI, Line 15A

Our Executive Director, Jana Spicka, has agreed to lead Greater Things for no compensation. This has been the case since our founding in 2015, but annually the Board has met with Mrs. Spicka to review whether this is still agreeable to her and also good for the organization.

Part VI, Line 15B

The payment of Laura Jones Collins as a board member is minimal and consistent with the payment of other 1099 contractors in our organization providing similar work, in terms of hourly rate. This payment amount per hours is a management decision and not one that Ms. Collins can influence from her board position.

Part VI, Line 18

We file the complete 990 with the IRS, and the 990 without the Schedule B to the State of Tennessee. Each year, after filing, we communicate in all our regular weekly meetings that the 990 has been filed and we offer an overview of the financial state of the organization and details of the filing. We offer at that time to have any and all documents avaiable for those who request them. Periodically throughout the year we remind those in our community that we are a 501c3 organization and that all our records and filings are available either directly from us, from the IRS, or from the Tennessee Secretary of State. Our charter and by-laws are also made available when requested and are also available from the Tennessee Secretary of State.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Part of the mission of Greater Things is to elevate women and men in their careers, goals and ambitions. We provide office space and meeting space below fair market value for women-led startup businesses and ministries and also men's businesses. As part of their informal partnership with Greater Things, we provide one on one and group mentorship, various small business and financial training, networking opportunities, as well as exposure for their business and ministry within the Greater Things community as a whole. In 2024 we offered space to (5) different women-led business or ministries and (2) men. Note on expenses: We count all of the expenses for this program in our rent & utilities for our building elsewhere in this 990.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Prior to submission of this 990 for Greater Things for 2023, the completed documents were all emailed to board members, and they were given a chance to review and ask questions. After that process was completed, the board members were asked for their approval for the 990 to be submitted. Only then was the document compiled, signed and submitted.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Our Executive Director, Jana Spicka, has agreed to lead Greater Things for no compensation. This has been the case since our founding in 2015, but annually the Board has met with Mrs. Spicka to review whether this is still agreeable to her and also good for the organization.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2The payment of Laura Jones Collins as a board member is minimal and consistent with the payment of other 1099 contractors in our organization providing similar work, in terms of hourly rate. This payment amount per hours is a management decision and not one that Ms. Collins can influence from her board position.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3We file the complete 990 with the IRS, and the 990 without the Schedule B to the State of Tennessee. Each year, after filing, we communicate in all our regular weekly meetings that the 990 has been filed and we offer an overview of the financial state of the organization and details of the filing. We offer at that time to have any and all documents avaiable for those who request them. Periodically throughout the year we remind those in our community that we are a 501c3 organization and that all our records and filings are available either directly from us, from the IRS, or from the Tennessee Secretary of State. Our charter and by-laws are also made available when requested and are also available from the Tennessee Secretary of State.
